Papers of Donald M. Goldstein, 1886-2005.

This collection documents Donald M. Goldstein's professional pursuits in researching, writing and teaching from the 1970s through 2005, and consists of correspondence, contracts, course materials, diaries, financial records, manuscripts, notes, photographs, publications, reference files, reports, transcripts, and videos. The first nine series represent Goldstein's primary research interests, which resulted in publications about Amelia Earhart, International Relations, Korean War, Spanish-American War, Vietnam War, Williwaw War, Ennis Whitehead, World War I and World War II. Of these series, World War II is the most significant, as it contains valuable primary documentation gathered directly from World War II participants and archival institutions located throughout Japan and the United States. In general, these resources provide first-hand accounts of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the resulting Pacific War from the perspective of military commanders, political leaders, and enlisted men. The World War II series also contains substantial documentation on the D-Day Invasion of Normandy, and the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes. In addition to the research files, the first nine series also contain manuscripts and related materials that document the process of writing manuscripts, editing drafts, creating page proofs, and marketing the final product. This entire process requires a constant flow of communication that is documented through correspondence, lists of corrections, and revised manuscript drafts. The remaining series detail Goldstein's personal interests, his affiliation with Prange Enterprises, and his teaching career, as well as the photographic and oversized materials that give some depth to this largely textual collection.
